Irish Whiskey Auctions is the world's premier platform for buying and selling whiskey. As the first specialist Irish Whiskey auctioneers, they have built a reputation for sharing their passion for Whiskey with enthusiasts and collectors worldwide, promoting a robust collection of Irish Whiskeys alongside other select international brands that meet their stringent standards.

Founded in 2018 by Anthony and Catherine Sheehy, Irish Whiskey Auctions stemmed from a simple ethos: "Why can't we?" Their entrepreneurial spirit, combined with over 20 years of business experience, has helped them establish a platform dedicated to promoting the fantastic range of whiskey available, with a special emphasis on Irish whiskey.

Anthony's passion for whiskey was kindled during a three-year stay in southwestern France, where he developed a deep admiration for regional pride in locally produced wines and spirits. Catherine, on the other hand, brings her passion for life and unique experiences to the business, ensuring a vibrant and dynamic approach to their operations.

The success of Irish Whiskey Auctions also hinges on their valuable partnerships with like-minded individuals and businesses that share their love for whiskey. Among their notable partners are Alan Campbell, the owner of the Bankers Bar in Dublin, and Willie Aherne, the owner of the renowned Palace Bar. Their expertise and knowledge significantly contribute to the platform's credibility and depth of offerings.

Operating under AJP Consultancy Limited with a PSRA Licence, Irish Whiskey Auctions conducts regular auctions, providing ample opportunities for buyers and sellers to engage in their marketplace. Please note that the specifics of their auction process and reserve prices can vary, and for the most accurate and detailed information, it is recommended to visit their official website.

We are delighted to be able to share our passion for Whiskey with those who have a love for and collect all things Irish Whiskey.
